Hello i have a chinease tablet that is a gemini joytab. How would i build a rom (havent done it before) but if there is a tutorial for this i would be grateful or a rough guide or somewhere to start.
there isnt any sources so it would have to be a build from scratch.
Thanks bobthecooldad
hmmm

sorry, but i think must build new rom with source code from another rom, and it is build port. for ure device maybe u must searc google for another device with near same. check the os type first and kernel (like a 2.3.4 or 4.0) if you founded it, chekc to cyanogen web to download source code and modify the near same device it ith ure flavour:laugh:
another way maybe other senior can tutor you, sorry for that
but i pray u can do it:good:

Haven't tried it, but all tutorials on the internet about compiling android are for linux. Probably because android is a linux based operation system. I don't think it's possible to compile on windows
Install linux or use the live CD...
well I guess I'll have to install Ubuntu then
Thanks... and any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

Sorry, it's not quite as simple as that. First set up your Linux install, and all necessary tools (check the Android developers site), and then come back and ask where to begin!
any chance by making an htc sense ui custom rom for it?
Custom ROM
Can I also get the custom ROM for SG 551?

If you want to take someone's complete and working kernel source and compile, the learning curve is not too high. If you want to take some source and mod it like the site that you linked, you are just going to have to take the time to learn a lot of stuff. I started my quest for Android and kernel knowledge about a year ago, and I'm not sure that I could work that out right now.
The first thing that you need to do is install Linux in a VM or dual-boot it. I love Windows. I use it everyday. But you are going to need linux for this. Sorry. I recommend Ubuntu or Debian. It will make other things easier for you too, like compiling AOSP and/or CM source, if you choose to do that at some point.
finaly some help!!
tks i realized iv have to use linux
but anyway il also be using someone elses custom kernel!
tks fr the help!

1) You'll need an arm toolchain. I just sync CM source and use the one there but that's me.
2) the commands that I usually use are:
"export PATH=$PATH: path_to_toolchain"
"make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- -j4"
3) This page is actually where I started from many months ago - http://blog.coralic.nl/2009/10/25/how-to-compile-the-htc-hero-kernel/
4) If you look at the code in Android Builder (link in sig), you can get the idea too. I based that part of AB off of #3 above.
5) EasyDev (in sig too) also grabs kernel source and compiles it.

You will need the kernel source code from the OEM of the device before you can get very far.

There is no FAQ on this as most of the OEM of the clones never release the source code to their kernels as the device is not an official android device.
clear, thanks for the info and the last
question: is it possible to install another rom
device similar characteristics of my device?

No i m not, because i dnt know about toolchains, whenever i tried to build kernels commands said (makefile command not found) and many more makefile error, /usr/bin error.
So i dnt know what shud i do.
If you are able to do this, this is very helpfull to me, because i want to make a rom that really 4.1.1 / 4.2.2 / 4.4.3 based for lenovo A390

if you want to build kernel from source you can learn from @srsdani's thread, at least you know the things you need to build a kernel, don't forget to hit the thanks button for him if his thread help you, if you already have all the things maybe i'll help you later
Hi,
Did you manage doing it ?
If yes - can you write how to ?
Thanks,

Hello everyone, can somebody compile CM12.1 or CM13 for XOLO BLACK? I know that there is already a CM12.1 ROM out there for this device but I've heard it's buggy. So, can someone come out with a bug-free ROM?
This device has decent hardware but TBH this HIVE ROM is ****ty, laggy and also very buggy, they don't even push out any OTA updates. Also, the kernel for this device could be found here: https://github.com/hiveinside/xolo_kernel

No source code for this device. Don't waste your time. If you've just bought this phone and it's returnable then take my advice, return it.
I've already moved on from this device now I own a OP3.

You can use the source code of Motorola X play. It has same processor and same screen resolution. You can take its device tree from lineage github and edit it as per your phone. Its code name is lux use this name to search it on git.
